pico
/ˈpiko/ · B1 · noun · m
beak
🐦⛏️ pico sounds like peck-o: a beak pecks, and so does a pick
Pico comes from picar, to peck or prick. It is related to English pick and peak, as in Pico de Orizaba, Mexico's highest mountain. A beak, a sharp point and a pickaxe all share that one idea: a pointed tip that strikes.
